Hi, Thanks for your detail advice.
It did happen to me about 2 year ago. The PC encrypted the password making ISP server unable to recognize it. However I fixed it finally. Unfortunately now I could not recall the steps taken to make such a remedy. >In turn your client software can either "talk" directly to the local >E-Mail server via, POP, Imap, etc. (requiring a username and password) >or it can "pick up" the E-mail from your inbox instead. TEST ==== I used POP and repeated numerous configuration on Kmail settings as follows ; (I skip Sending Mail configuration which has no problem) INCOMING MAIL Account Type Pop Account General Tab Host pop.aaa.net (I also tried only aaa.net without pop) Port 110 (defaut) X Store POP password in configuration file (also tried deselect this item) X Delete mail file from server Security Tab Under Encryption - blank all items Under Authentication method Tried all items Each time when I checked mail, following warning pop-up ....... ......... I said "pass <your password>" And then the server said "-ERR authorization failed" I tried numerous times and am quite sure the login and password being correct. Thanks B.R.
